It looks as if Brora, Forres. Academy, Fraserburgh, Rothes cnd Clach will be battling it out for league positions 8 to 13 this season. Cove on 41 points look just out of reach from this bunch and Lossiemouth look to be too far out of contention to do any better than their current 14th spot.

Here are the games that these teams have remaining:-

Academy need to win both remaining games agains Fraserburgh and Fort William in order to over-take Rothes and then Clach for 9th place. Rothes have a better goal difference than us, so we need the remaining 6 points that are left in order to over-take them, and in doing so we’ll also pip Clach for 9th.

I’ll keep this table up to date, as it should make for interesting reading between now and the end of the season. Full league table can be viewed here.
